one of the sites i went on said that 5000 it the brightest white u can get, then i went to another site and they said that 4300k is the brighest

uhh 4300k had the best output. It has the most lumens. And the higher you go on the kelvin scale the less lumen output it has.

4300k does produce more lumens but the lower you go the more the light will have a yellow look to it.5000k or 6000k are the "whitest" you could go if you want a white color for HID's.4300k are similar to oem so if you are going for a white look, go for 5000k's or 6000k's. some sites may show different colors for certain K's but most sites will show or say what you are looking for

4100k and 4300k are OEM spec HID temperatures that most closely resemble natural daylight. Anything below or above this has diminishing returns on light output.
